Tasting Notes

91-93
Vinous Neal Martin - 05 Jan 23
The 2021 Meursault Charmes 1er Cru has a strict, much more backward, reticent nose than the expressive Poruzot. The palate is more vocal with Clementine, stem ginger and light nectarine notes, gaining weight towards a slightly peach and still quite spicy finish. Give this time - patience required.

Meursault Fine Wine

Meursault

Meursault, in Burgundy's Côte de Beaune, is famed for its rich and complex Chardonnay wines. Known for opulent textures, vibrant acidity, and nutty, buttery flavours with notes of stone fruits, citrus, and hazelnuts, these wines also feature a subtle minerality and creamy mouthfeel from limestone-rich soils and oak ageing. Though lacking Grand Cru vineyards, Premier Cru sites like Les Perrières, Les Genevrières, and Les Charmes produce exceptional wines. Top producers include Domaine des Comtes Lafon, Domaine Roulot, and Domaine Coche-Dury, all celebrated for showcasing Meursault's unique terroir.
